Fix potential panic due to huge layout - #79
Merged
Merged
Conversation
If a user provides a layout with a big enough size, the allocator might panic on an unwrap instead of returning an error. The reason is that, even though the layout size is properly rounded to a power of two, Layout::from_size_align() will fail if the size overflows isize when rounded to the layout alignment. Fix this by handling the error instead of unwrapping it. Keep an unwrap in the HoleList::deallocate() as the validity of the layout must be guaranteed by the caller since it is an unsafe function.
